What comes to your mind when you hear “good health?”

For most of us, we instantly think of physical health, healthy food, and weight management.

For the United Nations, this means ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all ages — Goal 3 of the Sustainable Development Goals. Naturally, it’s easy to assume the government’s and the health care providers’ primary role in achieving SDG 3, from disease control and healthcare services to improving mortality rates.
